Below tables give production and sales data for 4 different categories of vehicles, in last 6 years. In any category, if the production is less than domestic sales and exports then they are imported. If the production is in excess of domestic sales and exports then they are stocked up (inventory is created) to be used in the subsequent years. There was no inventory at the beginning of year 2014-15.
Although the passenger vehicles produced isย less than the exports + Domestic Sales, the inventory created in the previous years will suffice the need of passenger vehicles in 2017-18.
So, in 2017-18, only the production of commercial vehicles was less than the domestic sales and exports, so only commercial vehicles were imported.
No. of commercial vehicles imported = 954 - 895 = 59
